Wedding hog roast for Mogador
Wedding hog roast in Mogador, slow-roasted on site
The carving station becomes a focal point: people gather round as the chef carves. It feels like an occasion. We serve new potatoes, crackling and salads, and we’re frequently booked for relaxed, low-key weddings and rustic barn receptions.
Near Mogador, weddings are frequently in fields, barns or gardens. That’s where a hog roast shines: no kitchen, just level ground and cover. Tell us about lanes, gates and ground conditions. Tell us about dietary needs and allergies when you enquire, and we will give you the allergen information for every dish before you book.
Diets, allergies and alternatives
You will get allergen information for everything we serve. To make the most of it:
- Share the menu with your venue coordinator
- Halal is not offered, so plan separately if needed
- Ask for gluten-free rolls for coeliac guests
- Give us vegetarian and vegan numbers
You will not have to think about the food. We roast through the afternoon and carve at the agreed time.
Festoon lights by the carving station look lovely in evening photos.
Working with your venue
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, let us know who we’ll deal with on the day. We will keep you both updated.
For venues and planners, we can fit around your other suppliers, sharing timings and a site plan.
A hog roast compared with other options
Compared with a barbecue, one roast feeds all your guests together without batches coming off a grill. The main driver is numbers: the price per head usually falls as numbers rise, because the roaster, staff and travel cost much the same either way.
Why us?
- Our staff serve and clear
- We bring everything to cook and serve
- Choices for people who don’t eat pork
- Roasted on site, slowly, for hours

How we price a hog roast for your wedding
Your quote depends on:
- Crockery choices
- How long the roast and service take
- How many people are eating
- Distance from us
Weekday and off-season dates can be easier to book, and the menu you choose matters too. Tell us your budget and we’ll suggest what works.
Details that help
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what to include:
- Where the roaster could go, ideally with a picture
- Roughly how many people
- The address or postcode
- Any venue rules
We need a few details to quote: your date, your venue or postcode, how many people and any menu choices. Use our quote form.
About the food
Stuffing and apple sauce
Stuffing and a dollop of apple sauce make the roll.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers (V)
Not everyone eats meat, and halloumi skewers give them a proper hot option.
Should I cook it myself?
If you are confident and want to save on staff, DIY machine hire is an option. You do the roasting and carving; we’ll explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
Full catering or machine hire? Catered means we do everything: roasting, carving, serving and clearing. With hire only, you do the cooking yourself.

It’s worth telling train travellers that the closest railway station is Reigate station, roughly 1.6 miles south-east of the centre.

How it works
Rain doesn’t stop the roast, because we cook under cover. Your guests will still want somewhere dry to eat, such as a marquee, hall or barn. Golden-hour photos in Mogador at midsummer come around 9:20pm, which helps us time evening food around your photos. In late May, sunset is about 8:50pm, and in late September about 7:05pm.
- Choose the main meal, the evening food or both.
- We send a quote with the menu and staffing.
